Here's a classic Sol Ho'opi'i lick he used on a number of his recordings. Thanks to Mike Neer for help with timing and positions.

Hey Andy, thanks for taking the time to dissect and notate this.
In listening to the sound clip I found the last bar to be different rhythmically than you show. I hear a dotted eighth and sixteenth on one, followed by quarter notes on 2, 3 and 4.
I got curious to hear it when I saw the eighths sharing the flag separated by the sixteenth rest.

And taken that way, Brian. Being self-taught, notating rhythms is the hardest part of music notation for me and I sometimes make things more complicated than they need to be. Guy Cundell and I have discussed this offline a bit.
Here's the lick re-notated as you suggest. Better! Thanks.

| Over what chord(s) would you use these examples? |

It's basically a very fast series of arpeggios the include neighbor tones that outlines a C major harmony.

Strikes me that in the key of F that run would be over the five chord or C ( like Andy said) and then the next bar (not shown) would be the root or the F.
V chord leading home to I. |
